Rutgers vs Illinois / Game Thread

C'Mon Caleb.

Yeah, if these refs are going to let handchecking go all do, this is gonna be a longggg one. Watch when our guards drive, illinois player grab our guys shoulders and hand checking all day

 

[RUChow]

So other teams are allowed to slap the back board after a big play. Got it

Neither Baker nor McConnell are this level point guards.

MUST HIT OUR OPEN 3s!!! Everyone else does it!

Geo has such a herky jerky shot. A lot can go wrong with his shooting motion.

 

[RU Mike73]

Turnover city

 

[CollegeAve]

Caleb playing like a freshman

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Pack it in. Another awful start, won't be able to come back from this. RIP Pikes mom

 

[DHajekRC84]

play smarter Caleb

Been forcing of late since that great game.
Do not need ANY one on one stuff.

 

[RUsince52]

All of our guys are capable of turning it over, at anytime.

 

[MadRU]

2nd on Geo.

Game going as expected.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

#10 is hand checking baker and no calls, if we breathe on someone we get a a whistle

 

[sct1111]

We struggle so bad with athletic defenders

 

[bac2therac]

Baker has 2....he will sit but he is going to have to come back....couldnt be a worse start...Illinois is dictating everything now...

 

[Jim_from_RU]

I’d like to see us win one on the road other than at Penn State.

 

[RUsince52]

There's playing hard and playing stupid........

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

i dont know why eugene insists on trying to lead the runout. He's not good at it

 

[koleszar]

Eugene is very sloppy with the ball. That's 3 times now he's lost it.

 

[MadRU]

Eugene has to stop dribbling

 

[bac2therac]

Mathis is going to be a strength today that Illini will struggle with....but Eugene has to get untracked

 

[Mr Magoo]

Why to hell would Eugene dribble against this D. Our guards can’t even do it.

 

[bac2therac]

ugh Myles gets called for that all the time, you could see it coming

 

[PatrickRU92]

bullshit charge call

 

[tfio]

Man, if we could just start a game without turning it over 45 times

 

[Scangg]

Caleb just needs to play aggressive. Take it to the hole and make them pay for extending the Deadline so far out beyond the 3 point line

 

[bac2therac]

I am not worried about Illinois half court offense...If RU can limit the turnovers and hit a few shots, they will be okay.....its all about not letting Illinois beat you in transition thats when it could get out of hand

 

[RU Mike73]

Wow ugly so far

 

[koleszar]

No that was not an offensive foul on Johnson. The defender slid in and never got set. Just watched it 3 times and that's absolute bullsh*t. Sorry I know some hate bitching about refs but that's absolute sh*t.

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Good basket by Caleb late in the clock.

 

[Scangg]

Caleb overwhelmed..take a seat

Or take it to the hoop and score

 

[Shell21]

Illinois subscribes to the theory just foul and hand check every time down the court ; the refs can’t call them all and they haven’t

 

[Night Man]

No that was not an offensive foul. The defender slid in and never got set. Just watched it 3 times and that's absolute bullsh*t. Sorry I know some hate bitching about refs but that's absolute sh*t.

Yep, watched it in slomo and the guy was still moving and leaned in, Myles did not initiate contact

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

17-14....close game

 

[Scangg]

Yeah, if these refs are going to let handchecking go all do, this is gonna be a longggg one. Watch when our guards drive, illinois player grab our guys shoulders and hand checking all day

All season long

 

[CollegeAve]

You can tell Montez wants to run with these guys

 

[RUChow]

Geo has such a herky jerky shot. A lot can go wrong with his shooting motion.

Like the kid, but aside from the step back jumper he doesn't do anything else really well. With Jacobs and MulCahy ready, and Mathis and McConnell coming on I just don't see anyway he's a starter this time next year.

 

[bac2therac]

no Gene, no Geo and we are hanging tough

 

[tfio]

Caleb! Let's go boys

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

that's calebs spot!!! kid does nottttt miss from there. When he's open he's lethal

 

[Mr Magoo]

Nice!

 

[RU-Choppin-Ohio]

Wow ugly so far

Yep, up 1
